Why am I not surprised? Why only John Stewart had any coverage of this Great Hypocrisy to a large audience?
The incredible deflection of the MSM is shining proof of their complicity with the GOP and with lies, better to deflect than to expose the treason of Tea Party, formerly known as Republican.
"Broadcast Evening News Shows Completely Ignored GOP's Blocking Veterans Health Legislation. Based on a LexisNexis search television transcripts from February 26 to 28, the veterans health bill was not covered by ABC World News, NBC Nightly News, or CBS Evening News. [5/23/14, via LexisNexis]"
"New York Times And Wall Street Journal Did Not Cover Senate Republicans' Successful Attempt To Kill Veterans Bill. Based on a LexisNexis search of news articles from February 26 to 28, neither the New York Times nor the Wall Street Journal reported on Senate Republicans' obstruction of the legislation that would have allowed the VA to open 27 new health facilities. [5/23/14, via LexisNexis]".

The MSM is once again the enemy, just as in the preamble to the fake Iraq war.
Again, they are at the same phase of a massive treason of truth.

(65,616 posts)I agree, just like the buildup to our invasion of Iraq. Shameless people, doing and saying shameful things for tons of money. I guess it was only a matter of time before the 'news apparatus' sold out to Big Biz.
